>I'm a complete beginner in Welsh, and fairly new to this list. Can anyone >tell >me whether it's the North Wales or South Wales dialect which is spoken in the >Welsh media? Does it just depend on where the speaker/writer comes from? Stephen Kingston reckons welsh media mainly use southern dialect. I don't know whether he's from the north, but I'm from the south, and I reckon there is more gog than hwntw (proper Welsh!!) Then again, maybe I'm just biased. Rhodri
